>“It’s a shame that he fluffed [his past],” Nunziato said. “But why are we doing this to him? Because he has an ‘R’ next to his name? It’s all fluff; it’s not real stuff.”

"Fluffed" is a pretty gentle term for lying about literally every aspect of your personal and professional life.

They can. These hospital systems can both afford to increase pay, maintain benefits and hire more nurses. They choose not to because of pure unchecked corporate greed wherein their boards demand skyrocketing profits year after year. They don't care about quality of service at the top, they care about how many millions of dollars in bonuses they can give themselves while they thank their ICU unit with a pizza party.

Ethics? How ethical is it that the CEOs of the two health care systems in this strike are making millions of dollars in salary annually with bonuses. That's fucking unethical. These health systems have plenty of money to go around to increase worker pay for the people who do care work and hire more of them for safe staffing. They can. They choose not to because of pure top down greed.

>Not discrediting his hard work and determination it took to get there but what exactly are they striking for?

You literally discredited him in the second half of your sentence. What a bad faith argument. Hospital nurses break their fucking backs with limited staff and resources to care for people, and you trot out some lazy personal anecdote?

The "she ran into my fist" defence probably won't work for him. Objectively, NYPD are supposed to be trained in de-escalation, specifically tactics that can't kill people (head punches kill people, btw?) to subdue someone. This guy didn't do that. He has a history of abuse and complaints. There is no both sides to this.
